Marking the Rack

1.Determine where you want to place the bottom of the system.

CAUTION: If you are installing more than one system, install the first sys- tem in the lowest available position in the rack.

2.Place the 1-U template over the front of the two-posts of the rack in the desired location.

3.Position the bottom of the template in line with the desired bottom position of the system chassis.

4.Mark the upper and lower-mounting positions on the vertical rails as shown by the V-notches on the sides of the template.

Each 1-U (1.75-inch) vertical space has three holes, with center-to-center spacing between holes (beginning at the center of the top hole of a 1-U space) of 0.625, 0.625, and 0.5 inch (see Figure 1-5).
